Orange colored and watery stool

RondaCMember

I've had a j pouch since December 2017. I haven't had any problems until lately. For the past month, I have had orange and liquid stool. Also, I have having to go to the restroom 2 or 3 times at night. During the day, I have maybe 2 BM's. At night, I have between 5- 8 bms. The stool is watery and orange and giving me butt burn. Any help with this?

You may want to keep a food/bathroom diary for a while. Also try moving your last meal earlier in the day. You said both 2-3 and 5-8 times at night?

You could have a GI infection, though the low bathroom activity in the daytime is surprising. Since you’ve had a month of this you might want to see your gastroenterologist and get tested for C. diff and other possible infections.
